Leica ScanStation C10 Use It in Your ProposalsA scan takes no time to complete…

•Take a scan of a proposed site and use a snapshot in your proposal

•Plot your set-ups

•Estimate the coverage and field time very precisely.

•The ScanStation C10 can be used for countless applications!

Just imagine the possibilities!!!

All of these Sites Benefit from HDS

Complex geometry, surfaces

Lots of detail, congested, tight fits

Far away or difficult to access

Hard to reach or delicate surfaces

Unsafe for personnel

18

Types of Projects That Benefit From HDSWhen:

1. Confidence in the data is important

2. Potential re-use of data

3. Multi-discipline use of info

4. Fast turnaround needed

5. Short windows to collect data

6. Fuzzy scope, expected scope changes
